Kelvin; Let me start by apologising for the caning. I shouldn’t have. You’re one of my bright students and I wasn’t even supposed to ask you to do the corrections all by yourself. I just wanted to give you the supposed attention so you won’t be distracted by our relationship.

Me: Its okay Sir. You shouldn’t apologise to me. I’m your student and I have no right to get angry whenever I’m caned by a teacher.

Kelvin: Come on stop being professional here. You’re not just my student,you’re my girl.

Me: I don’t know what you’re thinking Sir. All I’m saying is that I want to be treated like every other student. I don’t want the preferential treatment or a mean one either. I want to be able to look up during your lessons. I wa. . . . .

Kelvin; What are you saying? I’ll wait for you. You should understand that I can’t hurt you on purpose. We had to put on an act so those girls won’t suspect anything. We. . .

The bell rang out signalling end of prep. I stood up and straightened my gown;

Me: Forgive me sir. I can’t continue with this. I’m sorry.

I walked out without letting him say another word.

We wrote mock successfully before the mid term break. The ss3 girls didn’t go home for the break because waec started immediately.

After the mid term break, Kelvin dropped his resignation later. I was hurt but I just had to accept it. We wrote waec and before the end of the term,we finished and were asked to go home,to come back third term for neco.
